Categories

Cleanliness
8.9
Mostly praised as very clean in several reviews ("very clean room", "excellent cleanliness"), but one guest reported poor housekeeping (hair on carpet, dirty floor) after a room move—overall positive with isolated negative incident.
Service
8.9
Staff frequently described as friendly, helpful and courteous (pleasant check-in, very helpful staff), though a few comments note staff appeared stressed or unsmiling—overall service is a strong point.
Location
8.7
Convenient location close to public transport and Little India cited repeatedly; some guests wished it were more central to attractions and one mentioned road access/noise issues.
Room Quality
7.1
Multiple consistent complaints about small, cramped rooms, tight workspace, lack of wardrobe/wardrobe space, no bathtub and noise from busy road; some found rooms comfortable despite size—overall room quality is a weak point.
Amenities
7.6
Breakfast service and drinking-water service noted positively, but several amenity gaps reported (no bottled water in room, no Dove conditioner/body wash, non-smart TV, lack of international sockets) reducing perceived amenities.
Value for Money
8.6
Mixed but leaning positive: multiple guests said the hotel offered excellent value for money, though at least one guest felt the premium rate did not match expectations for a 4/5-star standard.
Food and Beverage
8
Breakfast was repeatedly praised as good and comprehensive by many guests, but several noted limited variety (primarily Western and Chinese) which lowered the score slightly.
Overall Experience
8.6
General sentiment is positive: clean, convenient, friendly staff and good breakfast create a good stay for many; however, cramped rooms, occasional noise and some amenity/maintenance issues produce mixed experiences for others.

予想以上に良かった。
Pros:

思った以上に清潔で、朝食も美味しかった。
スタッフもフレンドリーで、飲料水のサービスが
常にあったのも良かった。

Cons:

部屋の狭さとバスタブが無いことは、
値段からしたら仕方がない範囲。
東横インみたいに、ベッドの下が空いていて
そこにスーツケースを入れられるだけでも
狭さの感覚をかなり削減できるのではないか。

Very clean room & hotel with very helpful staff offering excellent value for money.
Pros:

Very clean room with good bathroom. Staff were very helpful and the included breakfast offered a comprehensive variety of food. Hotel was very convenient to 'Little India'.

Cons:

Our room overlooked a busy road and there was some noise in the night. A little more central to all the tourist attractions would have been nice.

Cons:

The room was not clean, and even after I complained and was moved to another room, the carpet was still full of hair and the floor was still dirty, even after housekeeping came in the morning.

Additionally, even if guests are allowed to refill their water bottles from the tap, the hotel should at least provide one bottle of drinking water in the room. There was also no Dove conditioner or body wash provided.

Overall, the hotel feels poorly maintained and definitely does not meet the standards of a 4-star hotel. The experience was disappointing, and the hotel is simply not worth the price.
